I actually thought it would still have been possible if they were speaking their languages as presented... after all there is that scene where Saki shouts, "What's his room number?" in Engl(r)ish. Like when Akira's talking to the black guy in the apartment, he holds up two fingers, prompting the black guy to hold up three along with his explanation, etc... eh, who knows.

Torrenting the sub right now... raws always come out when I'm awake but darnit subs are always released while I'm sleeping. XD
